He was at the peak of his youthfulness. Lucas Levin was free and rebellious, and he could even take any woman he wanted to his bed. He was 25 and everything in his world was going according to what he wanted. No restraints. No pressure. No limits. He was completely free! “Yo! Lucas! You’re finally here!” From the club’s door, Simon welcomed him with fist bump then tapped his shoulder as he whispered something on his ear. “We’re banging every blonde’s ass tonight, so you gotta prepare yourself.” Such hiss made Lucas grinned slyly as he winked at his friend. “Worry about yourself instead Sim.” The two of them laughed at each other as they walked side by side to joined some friends of their who already had guarded their own chick, afraid that the two infamous hot men; Simon and Lucas would steal them. The music inside the halls were banging from every wall, making every soul high and upbeat. As Lucas strode through the wild crowd to get himself a b

Eve stood in front of a door that seemed not to be the place Shia would go to. not to mention the narrow alleys Eve struggled to walked into, this place was just too dilapidated and filled with people that were too suspicious. Men that were in it don’t look like the ‘rich-handsome hot hunk’ Shia rushed to bragged about. And of course, she did have the honor to hook up with them. The place was not far from where her rented place was but the hundreds passage she went into made it looked like she just walked a mile just to reach it. “Have I gone to the wrong place?” she wondered but then, the enormous ‘PIACERE’ (pronounced as pya-siyere) was clearly written on bold letter with red lights on top of the door. She reached for her cellphone in her handbag, about to call Shia. But then, even before she could take it out, she heard a flirty sweet tone yelling far behind her. Though she wasn’t familiar with Shia’s voice, she was sure it was her. “Eve girly!” a

“I WEL NE-BER GET MARRIED! I WEL…I WILL…HOOK UP WITH SOME GUY AND …” The rest of her rants trailed off with an inaudible mumble. Simon finally came back with a glass of water and a small white pill. Seeing the state, the woman was in awake his caring instincts that he naturally went to give her the medicine himself. However, even before he could reach a meter near the girl, a towering man blocked his path whose eyes looked as if he would rip all his body parts apart. Simon gulped hard. “Of course, you’ll be the one to give her the medicine,” he grinned hesitatingly, handing the glass and pill to Lucas. Lucas still eyed him threateningly, as he received it and went near the bed where the woman was. She was still mumbling drunk which was the effect of the drug given to her. It was one of the drugs common in Piacere which makes the woman too drunk even with just a sip of a drink that was mixed with it. and if they’re too drunk, they neither pass out or

CHAPTER 8 “…but why don’t you consider me too?” “Find me here…” “You shall meet no man other than me…” Listening those words repeatedly inside her mind, Eve heart suddenly started beating faster than usual. She felt nervous. Like a girl who just received a smile from her crush. From staring at the ceiling, she tilted to her side. Where she saw the dilapidated buildings that were packed with people. It was tall yet old, and unlike the clean and glass-walled buildings she often saw when she was still in her dad’s house. Unlike their beautiful and tall mansion that could overlook the whole city, all she could see from this rugged and small room she stays at were old and unorganized buildings. And only people who really have nothing could endure to stay in such place. She sat up, looking around her room. It was silent. Cold. And felt empty. “But how different is this from our mansion? I cannot even call it my home…” With the bitter thought

Eve was losing breath. Lucas was holding her both on her waist and she never expected his light touch to be so warm. No. it was so hot that she felt like being burned under his touch. When she still kept her arms straight and frozen at her side, his hands brushed up towards her shoulder and cascades down to her wrist. Again, she let out a little gasp at the tension building up inside her body. Lucas guided her hand and led it up to his nape, suggesting her to wrap it around it. and so, she willingly obeyed. The music was slow but sensual, hot and provoking. He was also too close to her that she almost thought he’s just making things up to molest or make a move towards her. yet, when she looked around, everyone was doing the same. Some were even worse, almost sticking their bodies too close to the other that it didn’t felt right to watch them. Some were even kissing that she instantly looked away. And her eyes were caught by a pair of intense eyes grinning
